There is increasing interest in exploring whether dietary modifications may prevent or slow the disease course in people with PKD. Although vasopressin-receptor agonists have emerged as a novel drug treatment in advancing care for people with PKD, several recent landmark trials and clinical discoveries...
A team of researchers led byUC Santa Barbarascientist Thomas Weimbs released the findings of a clinical trial that provides the first proof that ketogenic diets may be safe and effective for people with polycystic kidney disease (PKD). A mouse experiment that was carried out a few years ago t...
You probably are looking at this app because you or a loved one has kidney disease- these ARE NOT kidney friendly, and could promote kidney stones or increase cysts in PKD. They do not account for oxalates, many are loaded with sugar, high in carbs, and often low in healthy fats. Plea...
After 3 months on the vegan diet I figured I'd share my experience. What it is, why I tried it for PKD and the results of this 90 day experiment.
Group 1 had 33 patients with chronic glomerulonephritis (CG), initial serum creatinine (Scr) of 1.4 to 4.3 mg/dl (mean, 2.20), followed for 5-94 mo. (mean, 44). Group 2 had 17 patients with polycystic kidney disease (PKD), Scr 1.3 to 4.7 mg/dl (mean, 2.40), followed for 8-81...
Dietary fish oils containing (n-3) fatty acids can modulate renal inflammatory injury. We previously demonstrated that a high fat (HF) diet worsens early renal disease progression in the Han:SPRD-cy rat model of polycystic kidney disease (PKD). Therefore, using HF (20 g/100 g diet) and ...
The mean rate of GFR decline was not significantly related to baseline GFR, suggesting an approximately linear mean GFR decline as renal disease progresses. The 41 baseline predictors were also assessed for their interactions with the diet and blood pressure interventions. A greater benefit of the ...
